create device

[Tony Alfrey]

Hello;

Maybe there are Fedora experts here.

System:

Athlon
Windows on IDE drive
SuSE 9.1 on SATA sda
Fedora 10 on SATA sdb
Silicon Image controller for the SATA drives.


Recently upgraded an old Fedora 6 installation with the Fedora 10.

Now I want to be able to mount the IDE drive on the Fedora 10.
I can do this easily on the SuSE 9.1, but for some reason, there is no 
hda1 in /dev for the IDE drive.  I'm assuming that I need to make a 
block device.  There is a script /dev/MAKEDEV on Fedora 10 but it wants 
various parameters for the drive that I do not know about.  How do I go 
about finding the information needed to make this happen, or is there 
some automated way to make the drive be visible.  This Fedora 10 
installation looks /way/ different than the Fedora 6 and frankly, the 
thing baffles me.

Thanks
